My admition exam for the college!!
I hope so!!

one less goal on my list! lol. manage to get both credit for accounting and economics. quite disappointing though. but since i expect to fail, the result should be ok for me. i hope it will still do me some good getting interships.

Police exam is in six days…. I’ve heard it’s really easy but I need to get the highest possible score. I’m excited more than anything though.

my accounting exam was so tough. i cant afford to fail. i dont wanna repeat the whole semester. i can only sit around and hope now.

I’m feeling oh so much pressure….I’m at the point where I really need to pass this!

I have to face my a/l exam by next. But i confuse so much about it.
I wasted a year without doing any studies.Also my relationship broke up. However i’m doing my best now….

My results came this morning – a tiny slip of paper bearing the word “achieved”. All in all a bit of a letdown, really, and far too late in the arrival, but whoop whooop! Now I can see about doing Level 3.

I just got a text off my friend who did my course a month ahead of me. Her results have arrived, finally. I’m not at home at the moment, but a quick call home to Lucyann2 confirmed that my results have not arrived. They’d bloody better not make me wait another month for them. It’s been ten weeks!

I think nine of us, maybe less, sat the exam. That’s a week for every paper taken. There were only ten questions on it. So, discounting weekends, that’s 45 days to mark 90 questions, each of which had a ten-line answer at most. Half a day for each question answered.

I’m getting quite irate now. I can only assume the examiners have either forgotten about us, or they’ve lost our papers, or they just can’t read.

I went to the college. There I met my friend who had her six-year-old nephew in tow. She’d been dragged away from having lunch with him to pick up her results. I waited outside the office for 15 minutes for her to come back, got my portfolio, was told the exam results would be posted out by the exam board in about a week, then told her I’d like a private word. We went into another room and I told her I was very angry and felt that my whole experience with them had been a shambles from start to finish, detailing everything I’ve listed in my “study counselling” and “pass my exam” goals.

She sat there, nodding empathetically, saying things like “This must be very upsetting for you.” I did not get anything remotely close to an explanation, an apology, or even an attempt at an excuse. I asked her why we had been dragged out at such short notice to get our files. She said, “I’m going on holiday tomorrow.” I said, “Did you not know you were going on holiday tomorrow?” She said, “My contract ends tomorrow.” I said, “Didn’t you know your contract would be ending tomorrow?” She said, “It’s a short-term contract.” I repeated, “Didn’t you know your contract would be ending tomorrow?” She said, no word of a lie, “I’m not prepared to discuss that with you, Abigail, the important thing is that you express how you feel.”

AAAAAAAAAAAARGH! NO! WRONG! THE IMPORTANT THING IS THAT YOU GIVE ME A REASON FOR YOUR ACTIONS AND AN APOLOGY FOR WASTING MY TIME AND MONEY, FEEDING ME DISINFORMATION OR NO INFORMATION AND PUSHING ME FROM PILLAR TO POST FOR THE BEST PART OF A YEAR!

For fuck’s sake, woman! This is no time for counselling skills! This is a time to say how very very sorry you are! You have not calmed me down! Your attempts to deflect any kind of blame and indirectly absolve yourself of responsibility have just made me even more angry at you! You have just guaranteed that I write to your superiors! You might be a college but for people like me who actually choose to study with you, you are providing a paid-for service. I have not received value for money. I demand satisfaction.
